HighLowHistory Generator

The HighLowHistory generator displays the high and low values for previous days as horizontal OHLC projection lines on the current intraday chart. This helps traders identify historical support and resistance levels from prior trading sessions.

Add to Chart:

Use a Controller object to add the generator to a chart:

const highLowHistory = controller.addGenerator('HighLowHistory');
Copy

• Default: 5

• Details

  The number of previous days to display. Each day is rendered as an OHLC projection showing the high/low range of that trading session.

Behavior

The generator scans the chart data to identify day boundaries and creates OHLC projection lines for each previous day's trading range. As new data arrives:

• The current day's range extends automatically.
• When a new day starts, the oldest day is removed (if the limit is reached) and a new day projection begins.
• Day projections carry forward their styling settings when shifting.
